[...] “You walk through a series of arches, so to speak, and then, presently, at the end of a corridor, a door opens and you see backward through time, and you feel the flow of time, and realize you are only part of a great nameless procession [...]
-- Quote John Huston (American Film Director whose taut dramas were some of the most popular films from the 1940s on. 1906-1987)

Huge thanks to Pete Waterman ( www.justliketherealthing.co.uk/ ) again for the use of his fantastic layout as a backdrop for these pictures.
A full gallery with break down component pictures of how this was built will be up in my Brickshelf folder in the next few days. www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=432359
Red vinyl has been used to replicate current parts that I did not have and also extremely old rare parts that were just too expensive too purchase ( such as the old style macaroni bricks www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=x1042a at $7.00 each!) These would give the smooth clean lines of the sloped boiler that is seen here. The gap between the sloped sections is generally covered by the hand rail, but me being me covered it all in vinyl as I dislike even the smallest gaps ;)
I have often seen comments that the HE should be dark red, this is incorrect, the engine (Olton Hall) that was used for the film is red. The carriages are crimson. The dark red vinyl I have is too dark for the carriages, thus these got built in red as the window shape was important to me. LEGO dark red would be the perfect colour for these carriages, but the windows are not made in this colour :| Hello TLG ;)
Lori Deiter and I made it to RGSP just after 8am...
We hiked from the Lake Rose parking lot down the Highland Trail, onto Glen Leigh, stopped at Waters Meet, continued on Ganoga Glen and back to the Lake Rose parking lot. Made it back to her vehicle around 1pm
Glen Leigh water flow is quite low, but Ganoga Glen seems to have a little bit more.

She was a beauty--a gold 45 goddess for sure! A Gold 45 Goddess exalts the archetypal form of Athena--the Greek Goddess of wisdom, warfare, strategy, heroic endeavour, handicrafts and reason. A Gold 45 Goddess guards the beauty of dx4/dt=ic and embodies 45SURF's motto "Virtus, Honoris, et Actio Pro Veritas, Amor, et Bellus, (Strength, Honor, and Action for Truth, Love, and Beauty," and she stands ready to inspire and guide you along your epic, heroic journey into art and mythology. It is Athena who descends to call Telemachus to Adventure in the first book of Homer's Odyssey--to man up, find news of his true father Odysseus, and rid his home of the false suitors, and too, it is Athena who descends in the first book of Homer's Iliad, to calm the Rage of Achilles who is about to draw his sword so as to slay his commander who just seized Achilles' prize, thusly robbing Achilles of his Honor--the higher prize Achilles fought for. And now Athena descends once again, assuming the form of a Gold 45 Goddess, to inspire you along your epic journey of heroic endeavour.

Alfa Romeo 4C TBi (2015-20) Engine 1742cc S4 Turbo
Registration Number S 77 RRL (Cherished number first allocated for Truro)
ALFA ROMEO SET
www.flickr.com/photos/45676495@N05/sets/72157623759785842...
The 4C concept was debuted at the 2011 Geneva motor Show. Designed as a small lightweight, two seater mid engine rear wheel drive sports car. Slightly smaller than the Mito.
Designed by Lorenzo Ramaciotti at Alfa Romeo Centro Stile, using a carbon fibre tub, front rear crash box, and hybrid rear frame composed primaryly of aluminium with a weight of around 850kg. The 4C has a high quadrilateral suspension at the front and MacPherson struts in the rear.
Powered by an new all aluminium 1750cc S4 turbo petrol engine of 230bhp with a capacity to produce 300bhp. The engine will probably be used in the new Guilia. The 4C is equipped with six speed Alfa TCT Dual Dry Clutch Transmission, and can be operated via gearshift paddles on steering wheel. It also has an Alfa DNA dynamic control selector which controls the behaviour of engine, brakes, steering, throttle response, suspension and gearbox
The production car was unveiled at the 2013 Geneva Motor
Show followed by the Essen Classica , the Goodwood Festival of Speed and the 2013 Frankfurt Autoshow, Production of 4C began May 2013 at Maserati's plant in Modena, with an expected production of up to 2500 units per year, with an upper limit of 3500 units per year, depending on the quantity of carbon fiber chassis that can be built by the supplier Adler Plastic
The car was designed by Centro Stile Alfa Romeo (Style Centre) and developed by Alfa Romeo. The chassis is composed of a central carbon fiber tub, with aluminium subframes front and rear. The carbon fiber tub is produced by TTA (Tecno Tessile Adler) in Airola, The entire carbon-fiber monocoque chassis ("tub") of the car weighs a mere 143 lb (65 kg). Front and rear aluminum subrames combine with the tub, roof reinforcements and engine mounting to comprise the 4C chassis giving the vehicle a total chassis weight of 236 lb (107 kg) and a total vehicle curb weight of just 2,465 lb
The production 4C uses a new all-aluminium 1.75 L (1,742 cc) inline 4 cylinder turbocharged engine producing 240 bhp with a combined fuel consuption of 42 mpg a 0-62mph time of 4.5 seconds and a top speed of 160mph
The 4C Launch Edition was a limited and numbered edition, unveiled at the vehicle's launch at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The vehicle came in a choice of four paint colours (Rosso Alfa, Rosso Competizione tri-coat, Madreperla White tri-coat or Carrara White matt). 400 examples were reserved for Europe, Africa and the Middle East, 500 for North America and 100 for the rest of the world (88 delivered to Australia—in Rosso Alfa and Madreperla White only). Distinguishing features of the Launch Edition were carbon fiber trim (including headlight housings, spoiler and door mirror caps), rear aluminium extractor with dark finishing, Bi-LED headlights, dark painted 18-inch front and 19-inch rear alloy wheels, additional air intakes on the front fascia, red brake calipers, racing exhaust system, BMC air cleaner, specific calibration for shock absorbers and rear anti-roll bar, leather/fabric sports seats with parts in Alcantara and a numbered plaque. Alfa Red coloured cars got matching red stitching on the steering wheel, handbrake, mats, handles and sports seats
In Europe the vehicle went on sale for 60,000 euros including VAT
The North American bound versions debuted at the 2014 New York Motorshow differing from their European siblings, with new head lights similar to those seen before in the 4C Spider version.. The cars also require extra bracing and strengthening required to meet U.S. crash regulations (including aluminium inserts in the carbon fiber chassis), resulting in 100 kilograms (220 lb) of weight increase.
The Spider version of the 4C was previewed showing a pre-production prototype at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show twelve monthe after the launch of the Coupe. Sharing its engine with the Coupé version, the 4C Spider has different external parts such as the headlights, exhaust and engine hood, as well as a different roof section that features a removable roof panel. The extra bracing required for strengthening the open top version and the hood mechanism itself increased net weight by 45 kg (99 lb) Top speed is quoted at 257 km/h (160 mph) and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) at 4.5 seconds.

These silos stand along Toronto's lakeshore and have been derelict and labelled a heritage site for several decades. They were originally soy bean silos and used for a variety of purposes. At one point a homeless tent city popped up on this property but nowadays there is a proper shelter in the neighborhood. The functionalism of the building design shows influence of early modernist architecture. As the Lakeshore is repopulated with condominiums and redesigned into communities instead of industrial sites, these silos will remain a reminder of the past!
my official website is finally up - there aren't a lot of pictures on it so far but I'm going to add some more this weekend :)
infinite thanks to Daniel Miltner (http://danielmiltner.com/) who built it for me!
p.s : the website looks a hundred times better on mac/safari, sorry for those of you who work with windows :)

Years ago, a friend told me a story from her childhood that I'd not heard before, and I think of it often. The story goes like this:
One morning, a little girl was looking across the valley from her house, admiring the beautiful golden windows on a house on the top of the hill.
"Mom," she said, "Do you see that house on the hill with golden windows? It must be so beautiful there, and the people who live there must be so wealthy! I'll bet they have no problems and their lives are filled with happiness every day. I wish OUR HOUSE had golden windows."
"Oh, darling," replied the mother, "no one's life is perfect. Even people who live in a house with golden windows."
"No, I think you are wrong! I want to go see for myself!" So the mother packed the daughter a lunch, and away the daughter went to cross the valley and see how wonderful life was for the people who lived in the house with golden windows.
The girl walked all day long. As she reached the bottom of the valley, she lost sight of the house but kept going. It was dusk by the time she reached the top of the other hill. But to her surprise, all she found was an ordinary house. She saw no golden ornaments, nothing that made the house look different or more special than any other house. The people looked ordinary, just like the people in her own family. She was puzzled.
Disappointed, she turned around to gaze at her own house across the valley she'd just crossed. And to her surprise, her house was ablaze with light. The windows shone with gold as the setting sun lit them up. In disbelief, she looked again at the ordinary house in front of her, then back to her house gleaming across the way.
"MY house has golden windows!" she said in amazement. She stood for a moment, struck by how beautiful her house looked from this side of the valley. She took off running back down the hill, eager to return to her family.

Introduction
Li Ming'ai is a Christian in mainland China. She is a woman of upright character who respects her parents-in-law, assists her husband and educates her child, and has a happy and harmonious family. In China, where atheism exercises control, however, the Chinese Communist government always wildly arrests and persecutes people who believe in God. In 2006, Li Ming'ai was arrested and fined because of her belief in God. After Li Ming'ai returned home, the Chinese Communist police often threatened and intimidated her and her family, and tried to prevent Li Ming'ai from continuing her belief in God. One day, when Li Ming'ai was away from home holding a meeting, she was reported by an informer. The police went to Li Ming'ai's home trying to arrest her. She was forced to leave home, and from that time on, Li Ming'ai's life hiding from place to place and fleeing from home began. The Chinese Communist police still won't leave her alone, always keeping watch on her home, and waiting for an opportunity to arrest her. One evening, Li Ming'ai stealthily goes home to see her family, but almost immediately the police hurry to arrest her. Luckily someone warns her, and Li Ming'ai escapes disaster.
Three years later, while Li Ming'ai is practicing her faith and doing her duty far from home, she is followed and arrested by Chinese Communist police. The Chinese Communist police carry out inhuman torture and torment on Li Ming'ai, and utilize family affection to try to lure her. They use threats such as denying her child a right to attend school, and blocking future access to jobs in the government that the child might have to try to force her to abandon her faith in God, to betray the leaders in the church , and to make known the finances of the church. During this time, Li Ming'ai prays to God and places her faith in God. In God's word she finds enlightenment and guidance. She endures torture and torment by the Chinese Communist police, sees through Satan's tricks, and resolves to not betray God. She stands firm witness for God. The interrogation by the Chinese Communist police bears no fruit, and they are shamed into anger. They lead Li Ming'ai dressed in prisoner's clothing to her village home, parading her for all to see. They do this to shame her, and then try to get her family members to tempt her to betray God, and sell out the church. Li Ming'ai is most enraged by how the Chinese Communists attribute the difficulties of her family to her belief in God. Filled with righteous indignation, Li Ming'ai angrily brings to light the evil reality of how the Chinese Communist government arrests and persecutes Christians. She states that the real destroyer of Christians' families is the Chinese Communist government, which is the arch-criminal who brings people all sorts of calamity. Thus she serves up a thorough and shameful defeat to the Chinese Communists.
Eastern Lightning, The Church of Almighty God was created because of the appearance and work ofAlmighty God , the second coming of the Lord Jesus, Christ of the last days. It is made up of all those who accept Almighty God's work in the last days and are conquered and saved by His words. It was entirely founded by Almighty God personally and is led by Him as the Shepherd. It was definitely not created by a person. Christ is the truth, the way, and the life. God's sheep hear God's voice. As long as you read the words of Almighty God, you will see God has appeared.

A woman left lonely will soon grow tired of waiting,
She'll do crazy things, yeah, on lonely occasions.
A simple conversation for the new men now and again
Makes a touchy situation when a good face come into your head.
And when she gets lonely, she's thinking 'bout her man,
She knows he's taking her for granted, yeah yeah,
Honey, she doesn't understand, no no no no!
Best if you View Larger on Black !

Maresme. Catalonia.

Maybe you like this: / Facebook / 500px
Maresme's territory occupies a long and narrow area between the Mediterranean Sea and the hills of Serralada Litoral (Catalonia's coastal mountains), and specifically Montnegre's and Corredor's hills in the northern half and Sant Mateu's hills in the southern half. This particular shape has conditioned both the geography and the history of this comarca. Probably the main distinct elements of its geography are the characteristic rieres (torrents). These short, intermittent water streams, which cross the comarca transversally almost every hundred meters, produce powerful and dangerous floods when it rains.
Canet des de els Tarongers
Maresme has been historically very well connected with the rest of the comarca as well as with Barcelona thanks to old Camí Ral (Royal Way) (actual N-II main road) and railroad (The Barcelona–Mataró railroad route, finished in 1848, was the first ever in all the Iberian Peninsula). Communications were enhanced in recent years with the construction of the C-32's Barcelona–Mataró section (1969), which was the first autopista (highway) ever in Spain, and its subsequent enlargement, the Mataró-Palafolls's section (1995).

Vuelven a llegar al Lago con las lluvias de verano pequeñas estrellas que tocan el cielo desde lo alto de la montaña, llegan con el agua limpia resbalando por las rocas en corrientes y saltos, en chorros y borbotones entre remolinos de cristal. Tras esta carrera intensa y entre cortinas de agua, como escasas estrellas fugaces encienden con su vida los fondos oscuros del Lago donde poco a poco se extinguirán.
Staurastrum arctiscon es una de estas estrellas, estrella alga todavía viva que brilla en verde esperando un futuro mejor de agua como agua y no de líquido turbio y vítreo contra el que sus potentes defensas nada podrá hacer.
Agua limpia y transparente, limpia y transparente como el aire es la que esperan para sobrevivir las estrellas que como Staurastrum llegan de las zonas altas de la Sierra, cielos de arroyos, lagunas y turberas cristalinas, que anhelan encontrar en el Lago su paraíso.
Staurastrum arctiscon es un désmido tan escaso y excepcional como de extraña belleza, habita en las aguas limpias de las lagunas glaciares sujeto por sus espinas a la vegetación acuática o flotando gracias a ellas cerca de la superficie. Lo encontramos hoy, por segunda vez vivo en el Lago de Sanabria, a más de cinco metros de profundidad, a donde ha llegado arrastrado por las intensas lluvias de verano que desbordaron charcas y arroyos.
La fotografía que mostramos, se ha realizado a 400 aumentos empleando la técnica de campo oscuro y polarización, se ha tomado sobre una muestra recolectada a cinco metros de profundidad, el treinta de agosto de 2015, por Laura , Tomás y Mª José en las inmediaciones de la Isla de Moras en el Lago de Sanabria (Zamora), desde el catamarán Helios Sanabria el primer catamarán construido en el Planeta propulsado por energía eólica y solar.

The lovely colourful style, and innocent, kind face of this Stranger attracted my attention as I was on my way home after a day of working on my upcoming photo book about Shoreditch life. I asked her if she had a few minutes for a portrait to spare, and she kindly waved 'no' yet I got the impression she didn't know what I was asking. I also, from her mannerism, guessed she might be Japanese, and that meant I still had a chance. So I asked her where she was from, still in English, and she said Japan. Lucky me! I then mustered all the rusty Japanese I had and explained the project and my intentions. She was happy to oblige and praised my Japanese, although as they often say, your Japanese is only actually great when nobody comments on it... ;)
Nao told me she is studying art and is from Tokyo, visiting London for the first time, by herself. She was thinking of seeing a musical that night so I recommended the Lion King. I wonder if she went to see it in the end. :)
